    I'm working on reversing multiple codicils/wills and reverting back to the original will.
    Fuck me, it's extremely messy.

    Just got my 1993 zx-7 back together the week before Halloween.. stacked it up memorial day weekend at Heartland Park. Currently have 2 1991 gsxr 750's I'm building one race bike out of. If anyone has an aftermarket shock, bodywork or other race goodies I'm interested!

    Yo Dave,

    Interesting you want, interesting (??) you get sir.

    Its an EX-500. Its got a bunch of parts from one of my blown up race bikes from way back in mid-evel times, which I guess makes it "applicable"...oh yea, and the 300# drag race slick on the back!

    Built by a friend as a tribute to his dad (the sea-bag seat is his) who passed when he was young. He built it for a "High-Falutin'" show in Vegas, around 2008. 25 invited builders....he pulled this EX out of his neighbors yard and entered it.....he got 3rd or an editors choice award, something.

    George Barber (yea that Barber) bought it and it was in the museum for a while, displayed on and off. George has a few of this guys builds. George recently gave it back to Bryan, so it could be displayed at the "Savoy Museum" here near Atlanta......the exhibit closed sunday night. Myself and my buddy James (Norton357) helped with the unload and transport of all the cars and bikes. VERY cool place.

    So, its gets even better (weirder?)....Bryan asks me to take the bike, and get it running / stopping again...so it can go to the AMELIA ISLAND CONCOURSE.....yea, on the lawn, on sunday at-da-big-show!

    Anyhow, interesting situation im proud to be a part of.....how the heck do I get myself into these situations? I have no idea.

    So, its still in my trailer. I dont even know if it will fit on my lift, but I will get-r-done, and will enjoy the show.

    I hope this fits your requirements buddy!:):rock:

    Talk about IRON BUTT. Google Frank Wheeler, Hodaka. His antics on small motorcycles is legendary.

    Daytona

    I don't want to do a separate thread for this but is there any non professional motorcycle racing at Datona? Armie quit running there and I really wanted to ride there once.

    150 is doable but you gotta keep it cool, (remote cooler up front or in the tail?)
    over 150 they seem to have a fuse attached...
    Cool rearsets, what are they and did they bolt up or u move the mounts?

    Matt, you are the undisputed KING of Aeroquip lines and fittings, I'm jelly.
    BTW, Don't forget to wire the countershaft... ;-)
